Michelle Dimasi is a PhD student within the ISR’s Citizenship and Government program. Michelle graduated from La Trobe University in 2007 with an Honours degree in Political Science and a major in Anthropology. Her PhD thesis is a continuation of her Honours project, which examines Australia’s asylum seeker policy in context of Christmas Island. In 2007, Michelle carried out qualitative research on Christmas Island and will be re-visiting the island in late 2008 to continue fieldwork with the Christmas Islanders. Her research interests include immigration and detention in Australia; state sovereignty and the rights of asylum seekers; and forced migration and displacement.
